Canals and physical regions MCQ - Practice Questions with Answers

Indira Gandhi Canal is linked with the Western Desert Plain Region of Rajasthan, where it has transformed irrigation and settlement conditions in arid districts. The semi-dry region is a broader transitional climatic belt and is not the specific regional answer asked here. The Aravalli Region refers to the hill belt running across Rajasthan, not the canal’s main desert command area. The South-Eastern Region is wetter and plateau-like compared with western Rajasthan. Therefore the canal is correctly placed in the Western Desert Plain Region.

Chuliya waterfall is associated with the south-eastern plateau region of Rajasthan, the Hadoti plateau belt where rivers cut through hard rock surfaces and form waterfalls. This makes the south-eastern plateau region the correct geographical setting. The eastern plain region is a lower alluvial plain and is not the usual setting for this waterfall. The Aravali region has hills and passes, but Chuliya is not classified there. The western desert plain region is arid and sandy, so it does not fit the waterfall's location.
